I nearly dropped my bike this morning

  1. I stalled the bike when pulling away this morning and nearly dropped it turning right :eek:. Not the best way to start a freezing cold morning at 04:30. Glad I go to the gym now :tongue:

  6. What are you doing on a Ducati at 4:30 am in this weather?

    Are you mad?

  8. Fear yee not my good man, the Ducati is safely tucked up, I was on my ZX7R, so I think catching it is doubley impressive :upyeah:

  12. Wasn't so lucky a few weeks back with my 998s. Got to the point of no return and had to just bale out to avoid a trapped leg.

    Respect to your catching skills :upyeah:
